The man looked up in surprise, and when he saw the person coming, he knelt down in panic.
"Master, Master, I am innocent, I am innocent."
It turned out that the person who wanted to strangle the eldest lady was the housekeeper Ah Fu.
At this time, Ah Hong threw the girl Hu Xing next to Ah Fu with one hand.
Long Changyun suddenly raised his foot and kicked Ah Fu to the ground, questioning in a cold voice,
"Why would you do this? You wouldn't even let go of a dying woman like the Madam?"
Ah Fu frantically dropped his head to the ground. "Master, I've seen the Madam suffer a lot from her illness, so... so I wanted to ease her pain and help her ascend to paradise sooner."
"fart."
Long Changyun suddenly roared, "Afu, tell me the truth, why did you want to kill the Madam? If you don't tell the truth today, I will kill you."
Hearing this, Hu Xing explained anxiously:
"Master, everything Ah Fu said is true. I know this. I asked Ah Fu to do this. Only I know the suffering that the eldest lady has endured over the years. She has begged me many times to end her life and not let her suffer this pain again. That's why I... I found Ah Fu."
"Nonsense."
When Luo Lan saw Hu Xing say this, she remained calm and interrupted her directly. She really didn't want to listen anymore. She was really afraid that these nonsense would pollute her ears. Besides, she was very tired and wanted to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
She looked at the two people kneeling on the ground and asked coldly,
"Ah Fu, Hu Xing, you're from Xinghe Village. You were betrothed to each other when you were young. But no one in Longwu Villa knew about your relationship. Am I right?"
Her words made Hu Xing and Ah Fu a little at a loss, and Long Changyun looked at Luo Lan with confusion.
Luo Lan continued:
"Ah Fu has been the housekeeper at Longwu Villa for eight years, and Hu Xing came in a year later. Seven years ago, the First Lady was in good health. But since Hu Xing came to Longwu Villa, she has been drowsy and listless all day, and later became bedridden. Is this true?"
As soon as she said this, Hu Xing's face turned pale, Ah Fu's forehead began to sweat, and Long Changyun looked at Luo Lan with surprise.
"Princess Yu, this... this..."
He didn't know how to ask, how to talk, or even what to say.
Luo Lan raised his eyebrows, took a package from A Cai, and continued:
"To control Longwu Villa, you two added Luohui to the Madam's incense. This poison is harmless in the short term, but long-term exposure can cause mental weakness, leaving you in a state of confusion and lucidity. Furthermore, you did something else to allow the Madam to maintain control of Longwu Villa."
At this point, she turned to Ah Cai and said:
"Please invite the ladies in."
A Cai nodded and went out. After a while, the five wives of the second owner and the two wives of the first owner came here. Among these wives, the wives of the second owner were in a very bad mental state. Maybe they knew that the second master was imprisoned in the sky prison, and they felt that they could not protect themselves.
The second wife of the master of the manor yawned reluctantly and muttered:
"I just fell asleep and was woken up. What's the matter?"
The Third Madam also nodded in agreement, "Yes, what's the big deal? Why do you have to call us all here?"
Long Changyun also looked at Luo Lan with some confusion.
Luo Lan glanced at these women, his eyes slightly raised, and said softly:
"Don't you ladies want to know why you've been infertile?"
Hearing this, the women instantly perked up, looking at Luo Lan and asking in confusion,
"What's the reason? What did Princess Yu find out?"
"Yes, Princess Yu, please speak quickly if you have anything to say."
Luo Lan glanced at the women, then picked up the paper bag that Ah Hong had just handed over, opened it layer by layer, with a faint smile on his lips.
When the last layer of paper was opened, the Third Lady directly questioned:
"Isn't this the incense I gave to Princess Yu?"
Luo Lan frowned slightly and said coldly:
"Madam San is absolutely right. This is the incense you gave me."
As she spoke, she pointed at Ah Cai and Ah Hong's hands and said, "What they are holding are incense collected from the ladies' rooms. This is why I called you here today."
As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Hu Xing, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and continued:
"There's nothing wrong with your incense, but it contains something else—musk. If you continue to smell this kind of musk for a long time, you won't be able to conceive normally. This is the root cause of your long-term infertility."
As soon as she said this, the seven women opened their mouths in surprise, and one of them shouted directly:
"This must have been made by the eldest lady. She has always purchased our incense from here and then distributed it to us."
"Yes, the eldest lady has a son and a daughter. She must be afraid that someone will compete with her for status, so she did this."
"She is so cruel. She is still pretending to be sick. Get up, get up and explain clearly."
"Mmmm, why can't I have children? I've suffered so much over the years because of not having children!"
"Madam, please get up. You are such a vicious person. How can you be so cruel?"
Listening to these women cursing, Long Changyun suddenly roared impatiently.
"Shut up, everyone."
